The campaign stars Ellie Goulding, Daisy Lowe, Jaime Winstone, Chris Packham, Dame Imelda Staunton, Jim Carter, Sir Stephen Frears, and Camilla Thurlow, making 'emotive demands' to leaders worldwide, and XR supporter Packham commented 'Time has run out. It’s act now or face almost unimaginable consequences for life on Earth'.
